Goodbye January....Hello February!

As another month has come and gone we welcome another month. I am gladly welcoming every month with open arms because it just brings us closer to meeting Miss Mary-Ross.

I had a great birthday, thanks to all my friends and family for making it so special! My hubby was extra good to me because he surprised me with diamond earrings! I was so happy and I will have to say they look GREAT! It ended up working out that I was off work for my birthday so I decided to use a Christmas present Justin had given me, which was a gift card to the spa at Ross Bridge! I treated myself to a prenatal massage and pedicure. They were amazing! Unfortunately I caught a cold the day before my birthday so I tried very hard not to feel miserable on my birthday. Thanks to a weird episode with sudafed the night before I did not get much sleep so I was a walking zombie on my actual birthday so I was thankful I did not have to go to work because after all my pampering I went straight home and laid on the couch until time to start getting ready for dinner that night. We meet the Crutcher's at a place called Bellini's we had heard was very good. We all enjoyed our meals and we really enjoyed our dessert. They have some of the best bread pudding I have ever tasted! YUMMMMYYY! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water! Our weekend continued on and the Rolling's came up Saturday and painted our nursery. YAY! It turned out amazing, everything I had pictured! Justin hung the lamp for me and we got all the furniture we have so far moved to it's place. We put the bedding on the crib as well. It all looks great! Saturday night we ate with my whole family at Cheesecake factory and it was great! My mom & sis got me my favorite cake from IZ Too, Carrotcake! They have some of the best carrot cake ever! It was funny because a couple waiting for a table saw we had brought our own cake to Cheesecake Factory and I overheard them saying, "Why would you bring your own cake to Cheesecake Factory? They are known for there CHEESECAKE!" So my sis piped up and said well that might be the case but it is my sister's birthday and she is pregnant and this particular cake is her absolute favorite! They quickly tried to cover up that they were talking us and tried to be nice. Hahaha. But, overall it was a great weekend with everyone!

Last weekend my sister, Lynlee and I went to look for a bookcase for the nursery and we found one at this place called Antiques & Interiors and I love it. Lynlee had already gone and looked around for me and so she knew all the good places to go. She loves to re-do furniture and so she is going to make it look good! Luckily we found one that had 3 drawers at the bottom of it so I will have extra storage. We found a great antique mirror to hang above the dresser/changing table and 3 small vintage prints that are going to look perfect. Lynlee also found a guy on Etsy to make me a very large aluminum "M" to hang over the crib. So now we are still waiting on the chair to come in and still need to buy a few more things to hang on the wall. So ready to have it completed. I just know the time will slowly creep up on us and so we are trying to get everything done as soon as possible so it will be one less thing to worry about.

Justin and I were making a list of everything that needs to be done around the house before little girl gets here. We just know if we do not complete everything now that it may never get done! So completing that list is our top priority this weekend and next.

I uploaded pictures of Mary-Ross's nursery on facebook if you have not already seen the pictures, check them out. I will be updating the album as we make more progress! Have a great week and weekend!

Until next time.......
